Defected Records present the latest installment in the critically acclaimed "House Masters" series, looking at the illustrious career and awe-inspiring musical heritage of Brian Tappert and Marc Pomeroy who are best known as Jazz-N-Groove but also recorded individually and collaboratively under aliases such as Urban Blues Project, Soulsearcher (whose "Can't get enough" was the first ever single release on Defected Records) and Cleptomaniacs (together with longtime friend John Julius Knight). Their seminal productions and remixes were released on famous labels such as Bassline, Suburban, Strictly Rhythm and AM:PM, as well as their own label family Soulfuric, many of which can be found on this compilation: the bonafide house music anthems "Deliver me" by Urban Blues Project present Michael Proctor, "Can't get enough" by Soulsearcher, "We can make it" by Mone (created together with regular collaborator Roy Grant), as well as many of their highly esteemed remixes for Loleatta Holloway, Donna Allen, Louie Vega, Michelle Weeks, Frankie Knuckles and Shakedown.
